Bears castoff Mitchell Trubisky, after a season as a backup in Buffalo, could take over for the retired Ben Roethlisberger as Pittsburgh's starting quarterback.
of this year’s NFL draft. But the starting job seemingly was Trubisky’s from the moment he picked the Steelers over the New York Giants in free agency. There had been speculation that he might head to New York after the Giants hired Bills executive Joe Schoen as their general manager and Brian Daboll, Buffalo’s offensive coordinator, joined Schoen as head coach.
Trubisky widely was labeled a bust with the Bears, failing to live up to the promise that accompanied the team surprisingly drafting him at such a lofty spot. He never won a playoff game with Chicago, and the Bears declined to exercise the fifth-year option in his rookie contract.But Trubisky, in truth, wasn’t entirely awful in Chicago. He was even selected to a Pro Bowl as a second-year player in 2018.
Coach Mike Tomlin eventually will face an interesting decision if Trubisky plays well, given the team’s use of a first-round choice on Pickett. Trubisky is still young — he turns 28 on Saturday — and his talent level rarely has been questioned.
